You need to watch the movie The Pick of Destiny plenty more of Jack singing and Kyle playing, it’s hilarious one of my favourite films. Rock on 🤘

The brief history of Tenacious D. Jack Black and Kyle Gass met as part of the same comedy troop in the 80s. They formed Tenacious D and had some niche success, which included a short HBO special featuring the original music video for 'Tribute.' It's worth noting that the original version HEAVILY implied that 'the greatest song in the world' was Stairway to Heaven, but those inferences were later taken out for legal reasons. Anyway, Tenacious D remained mostly a small passion project until Jack Black began to find success in Hollywood. With the financial security that brought, it gave Tenacious D a shot at the mainstream, so they released their debut album along side the video you just watched. The band achieved moderate mainstream success, which eventually culminated in their movie, Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny. They now have a solid, loyal fanbase and tour fairly regularly (they just announced an Australia tour). They release new songs every once in a while and release music videos on KZread. Jack Black's most recent movie outing was voicing Bowser in The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Just a tip: the ENTIRETY of Pick of Destiny is worth reacting to, but you have to make a choice. You can either react to the music and spoil the movie, or you can react to the movie and spoil the music.

I think Jack Black was just born a few years too late. He would have been one of the greatest vocalists of the generation if he had started a rock band in the late 70's to early 80's. He has an awesome voice that would have fit in with that era so wonderfully. I could imagine him touring with Meat Loaf. They're both awesomely theatrical. Unfortunately, he came into prominence in late 90's and early 2000's when music had changed so much. So ya, good voice.

You're in for a fantastic evening. There's nothing like The D live. And no matter how great Jack himself is, together with Kyle Gass there's a special magic.

Check him out when he sings Marvin Gaye @ the end of the movie "High Fidelity". It was most people's introduction to Jack Black's vocals.

They are great... funny... just great. And yes Jack can sing... so much.. watch their cover of Wicked Game...

I’ve been to 100’s of concerts, seen the biggest acts, all kinds of genres. Tenacious D was one of the most memorable, entertaining, crowd invested, shows I’ve ever seen.

Brothers in Rock 😊

I saw the D on 4/20 right after this album released and it is legitimately one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. No joke. They rock and they do skits. Their first album was their best IMHO.

They are the headliners in many International Metal or Rock festivals

His 'brother', Kyle Glass is an outstanding guitarist, and they do some great harmonies in their songs. Jack's dad was an engineer, but his MOTHER...Judith Love Cohen was an American aerospace engineer. She was an electrical engineer on the Minuteman missile, the science ground station for the Hubble Space Telescope, the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite, and the Apollo Space Program.

This one brings me back! watched this for the first time when i was 12 yo at my first job! you should react to Tenacious D - Wonderboy. its definitely my fav song by them, fkn slaps

Their music isnt a joke. Its badass.

Yeah JB has some quality pipes. I caught a vid of him singing the national anthem for a wnba game a handful of years ago and I was taken back when I heard him belt it out.

Their Beatles medley is stunning! Definitely worth a watch. Jack was a great set of pipes.

Tenacious D is legendary. The way they mix Humor and actually impressive musical talent is phenomenal.

Kyle Gass, the other half of Tenacious D's band just played our county fair over the weekend. It was great to meet him. I love Tenacious D ever since their 90's HBO tv show. Such a trip. So many people around my city didn't even know he was here.

He is a master of making a funny song that is absolutely professional in composition so its a fun mix of serious and silly and skilled.

This is from the movie "Tenacious D and the Pick Of Destiny". it definitely was inspired by "Devil Went Down To Georgia." The Devil is Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters. It's a really good movie and I totally recommend checking it out. Meatloaf plays Jack Black's dad in the movie. And of course he's freaking fantastic...lol. Check the song out. It's called "Kickapoo". Kyle and him are not real brothers. Just besties. Jack Black has an incredible voice!

Tenacious D is the greatest band in the world. There legend is sung in the halls of Valhalla. Jack Black and Kyle Gass formed as a comedy singing group in the 90s and quickly rose to fame. There name comes from Marv Albert and his his phrase meaning sensational defense. The D lives on in our hearts minds and balls. Long live the D

If youre doing a medieval parody of your own, check out Wonderboy from Tenacious D. Right in the pocket.

Tenacious D had a movie come out in 2006 called Pick of Destiny. I was 3 years old when it came out. I can vividly remember my dad playing it in the car when it was just me and him. We did sing alongs and I couldn't cuss. We did that for years till I was in middle school. Still listen to Tenacious D to this day and me and him are both metalheads but in different subgenres. I even have my dad's old iPod that I use on occasion which has his old R&B and old school metal and rock music on it.

"Humble Hustle" I love that. Keep it up, cheers, brother.

Damn, they look so young in this. Time really does fly by. 'Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time...'

YEAH, Tenactious D love them, love your reaction

My friends and I listened to this album on repeat for a 12 hour road trip to the Ozarks a couple decades ago

I really like his song wonder boy. His singing in it is great.

I was lucky enough to see them live in London a few years back...absolutely brilliant! They played their entire new album first and then ALL the hits...pure class!

Brings back so many memories! I used to have a PC game alost 20 years ago called Frets on Fire, where you use the keyboard and the spacebar and F1-F5 keys to play a whole catalog of songs (almost like Rocksmith), and this was one of those songs. Never even knew it was Jack Black!

People sleep on how good of a singer jack black truly is. I been listening to tenacious d since i was a teen and im 39

Wonderboy!!!!! One of the top TD songs.

JB is a very talented musician... he can play many instruments like a demon. Music is his first love :-) Hi from Australia

Actually it's both Jack and Kyles band together Kyle taught Jack to play guitar and Jack's learnt SO much from him. Kyle had a band before and let Jack join his band. They formed Tenacious D and Kyle also has two other bands he plays with while Jack does his films. They're both SO great together. I love their music ❤❤❤❤❤

Ahhh! You discovered Tenacious D! That's awesome! A friend introduced me to their show back in 2000 I think. It was the first time I saw Jack Black in anything and it was such a trip. So of course when their first album came out, I immediately grabbed it. The entire album is awesome and you should totally check it out. I remember the video for Wonderboy got a TON of play on MTV when it came out (I know because I was watching to see if the Michael Jackson video i was an extra in,"Cry", got any time. It did not. LOL) Since then I've been a massive fan and I love watching his movies and enjoying new music. One day I will see them in concert! But yeah. They can both seriously sing and play. They are brilliant musicians. If you're interested in trying some more comedy music (similar to this and Tim Minchin) I'd suggest looking up Flight of the Conchords and their songs "Business Time" or even "Hurt Feelings" (though I love their entire catalog too)

Tribute isn’t a song, it’s an experience lol they are funny but extremely talented musicians. Jack can seriously sing like an angel.

The best part of this song is the fact that they can't remember the greatest song in the world. Who hasn't had that moment. Your mind clears, and the clouds part the idea is so ground breaking, world shattering, it shall change the course of the entire world. You wake up or turn off the shower or pull over to write it down. Something occurs you get distracted... And it's gone.

I love talented comedic music... they need a word for the feeling of not knowing whether to laugh or shut up and appreciate it.

I love Tenacious D, they play big festivals sometimes, they even played here in Asia! I think they recently played Hellfest? Check out The Pick of Destiny movie or at least the song Kickapoo.😂

He is such a good musician !!! The thing is that henos so funny that one tend to not taking him seriously , but he sings soooo good !

My god I remember watching this all the time on MTV when I was in primary school 🥲

they are so great live...I have seen them 2x once in philly and once in DC.

Tenacious D are awesome. Back in the 90s they had a sketch show on HBO. Also, the Devil is Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters and Nirvana fame. You gotta check out their movie The Pick of Destiny. HILARIOUS! OH, AND jack voices Bowser in the Mario movie.

Literally the greatest and best band in the world! Got tickets to see them in a few months, can't wait.

Saw them live in Stockholm Sweden a few years before Covid. Super exciting consert totally bonkers good. Yeah, they can rock seriously.

A song about the greatest song in the world that they couldn't remember...genius!

Ive seen some great musicians; some great concerts. Tenacious D is debatably the best show Ive been to. They can satirize rocknroll (something they obviously love and have great admiration for) and poke fun at tropes within it with such expert execution, you realise why so many tried to emulate it in the first place. Good humor takes intelligence. Good music takes skill and emotion. When the smartass is too hot for teacher tis a dangerous marriage.

Kickapoo is a legend of a song 😂 jack black is first a artist then an actor most of the musical stuff In Movies he is in he is involved with on some level

Thumbs up for not pausing every 10 seconds. Also for rewinding just a little bit the few times you did. :)

Seniorita is also an amazing song. Tenacious D make great music. And the idea behind Tribute is genious

I love me some Tenacious D. I thought it was just a skit, like a Saturday Night Live bit, when I first heard of them... but they are a thing. They tour and sell out big shows. Different genre, but much like the Blues Brothers(if you're unfamiliar definitely worth a reaction), they have real talent. Thanks for the reaction, keep on doing you... I'm a big fan!

Giving out great vibes rock on

Tenacious D is one of those special things that have transcended worlds. Comedically and incredibly musically talented worlds colliding. Hope you do more of the D, pause.

So many great Tenacious D songs, if you wanna see him flex his voice check out their live cover of wicked game, I wish it was the full song but yeah lots of greatness from these 2

Thank you for doing this!!! Try "Friends" as a fun reaction. Very short but hilarious!

Jack got some legendary rock and metal musicians together to work with Double Fine productions on possibly the greatest metal video game of all time. Brutal Legend.

Tenacious D had a show in the late 90s on HBO. It was called Tenacious D. I think it only had 1 season.

Not sure if anyone's mentioned it, but the 'greatest song in the world' is Stairway to Heaven and this song is a tribute to that. You can hear the classic melody from when they first sing "And we played the first thing that came to our heads, it just so happened to be the best song in the world, it was the best song in the world" and the rest of the band kicks in; it runs under the whole thing, and at the end (I didn't hear it in this version, just the little guitar outro), they sing "And we plaayyed the greaaatest song. in the woooooorld... talkin' about Tribuuuuute" just like the end of Stairway. Fucking genius.

Jack Black is a national treasure. Amazing performer all around. I have seen Tenacious D live 3 times over the years and they really put on a great show.

In one month they are playing in Copenhagen and I'm going there cant wait gonna be a blast.. :D

Apparently, at every live performance, they alter the song to imply that a different song is the "greatest song" they're playing tribute to.

i love this song so damn much, the concept is just flat out hilarious, these 2 guys wrote a song SO fucking good they vanquished the devil with it, but also forgot the damn song, so they write a new song recanting the experience LMAO

Tenacious D - Roadie is a tribute to roadies. Wonderboy is a super hero song. They have tons of stuff. You need to see the last scene from the movie High Fidelity. This was the first time that I heard Jack sing.

Because he's funny, a lot of people don't realize how great a musician he is.
